Zhong Xingwang had also been growing steadily within the month, arriving as a pale scholar but becoming sturdier, growing taller, and getting tanned throughout his month of adventures.
Before he was set to return to the city, he went to the Ye family to buy some local specialties, including the county's dried fruit and homemade plum wine and riberry wine, which he planned to bring back home.
He also purchased some local tofu skin and handmade noodles; these products, when bought in the Capital, would be more expensive and not as delicious as they were in this county.
When they learned he was leaving, besides the items he had purchased from the Ye family, the Ye Family's sisters gave him some of their homemade specialties as well.
Ye Shiqi gave him some honey from her space and made a small deal with him before his departure, hoping that Zhong Xingwang, upon his return to the Capital City, could help her find some medicinal herb seeds.
